Anybody up for a "Your Neck Of The Woods" thread? Just share what the weather is like where you are located, you can share your location, or just post what the weather is like where you are. Maybe even post a random picture "you" took. Anyone?

In case you ever wondered what the bottom side of a F-15 looked like.

Butte, MT where it’s -14°F (-25°C) and has been snowing for the last couple days after being nearly 40°F. As a result there’s lots of snow covered icy roads and the two interstate highways that intersect here both have closures. Guess I’m staying home today!

Freak snowstorm dumping 10.8" in downtown PDX and up to 5-inches ON THE BEACH AT THE COAST in Tillamook.
This is the second highest winter snow record ever recorded in PDX.
City is totally shutdown.
Roads are littered with abandoned cars.
Temps in the low 20's with howling wind.
Maybe we'll thaw in a couple of days.

I'm in NE Indiana. It's 38°F with a high in the 50s if it gets there. We're just waiting for the fog to lift today.
I see one Sidewinder but can't identify the other missile.
14 inches of snow, 50 mph winds, cars blocking roads and what can get by is slippery and nasty.
I am on the north side of the Columbia River in Camas, WA. It’s a mess out there.
First photo showing snow build up sliding of the roof.
Second photo what the back yard looks like.
Last night I walked the half mile down to the main road. By the time I turned around to walk back home my down trip prints were no longer visible.

clear blue sky, noon time and about 80 degrees, today is a day that justifies me making the worst financial decision of my life to move to North Carolina. living in Ohio for 18 years was leading me to an early suicide as I hated the weather.
North of the guys in Camas and at PDX (suburban south King County between Seattle and Portland): currently 27 degrees F on the front porch. Overcast and dry. A little breezy in that the Tempest weather station on the roof is sporting 8 mph gusting to 11.
We had a few flakes of snow last night, but it looks like the storm went south. @TSMILLER : wow! Likewise @FredA

Wow - just an update on the local news - Tillamook got an official 9.5 inches!
Amazing for being on the coast.
Time to go out and give the snow blower a workout.

In Phoenix, 54f and 10 mph.
Yesterday was really windy, 60+ at airport and 70+ in Tucson.
Not really cold but we are sissies.

Update, since snow weighs in at about 162lbs a cubic yd I figure I have moved 48,600 lbs of snow today. Love my Airens
I have. 375 ft long driveway on a sloping sideways as well as downward hill. I usually just shoveled it, or ignored it. I think this is going to get to be a little more common. Since the young lady that used to help me (joint driveways) has gone to Arizona for college. I think it is time to invest in a small snow blower. I am old, and my body just doesn’t like that hard workout any longer!
EDIT: I just received notice that our plant (Boeing) in Portland has suspended Ops until further notice. FIRST TIME EVER!

I bought the 24" Airens with the larger motor - REALLY awesome machine - did my drive then 350 feet of sidewalk and decided to keep going up the hill for about 1/4 mile to take care of my neighbors. Fun actually as long as it's like once a year.
Well worth the investment to avoid a heart attack shoveling.
Between the 9ish inches last night and the 10 inches we had back on April 11th, 2022 it has more then pair for itself IMHO.

Mine is also the 824E. Although they no longer make that exact one.it has well paid for itself.
Yesterday morning, I had to scrape ice off my truck because it was 27 degrees (F), and freezing rain. This afternoon it was sunny and 74 degrees (F).
Ohio is weird.

Nearly record breaking heat.
Nice summer day here. About 92F and sunny, with a nice breeze.

One of the seasons I worked at Cedar Point, my roommate was from Turkey. Within a week we had snow flurries then it got hot with a thunderstorm and waterspouts on the lake. He had never experienced that kind of shift in weather before and commented that Ohio has a year of weather in a week.
Winds are awful. We’re supposed to have a MPR launch on the 4th but might be B motors again.
I’ll probably still go out and launch some small kine rockets on Saturday in the rain.

Too bad it's a Strike Eagle.
Whidbey Island, WA is 30F, 7 mph wind, clear and dry. Sounds like one of the more comfortable spots right now.
Rain, as expected in sub-tropical Oz. Actually wearing a jumper, which is weird.
In my nearly 38 years at Boeing in the Puget Sound region I can only think of a handful of times they suspended operations for weather (and for a day or two after the 2001 Ash Wednesday earthquake). Pretty rare thing indeed.
Just cold here (well, relative to normal). 25º F with a wind chill to 18 right now. Expected low tonight ~20º F. Some (but not much) snow predicted Saturday evening to Sunday morning.
